At age 91, William Daniels carved out an impressive Hollywood career playing no-nonsense, tough-talking characters such as Dr. Mark Craig on “St. Elsewhere” and teacher Mr. Feeny on beloved sitcom “Boy Meets World”.

Over the weekend, the veteran actor proved to be just as tough as the characters he’s played, with TMZ reporting he thwarted a burglary attempt at his home.

According to TMZ, a would-be burglar attempted to kick in the back door of the L.A.-area home Daniels shares with his wife, actress Bonnie Bartlett, on Saturday night.
